Cisco Cisco Aironet 350 Wireless Bridge Information Guide
Q. Can you connect two computers together without an AP through
wireless interface cards?
wireless interface cards?
A. Yes. From the Aironet Client Utility (ACU), you can configure the clients to run in ad hoc
mode. This connection is only a peer−to−peer connection. One PC becomes the parent and
controls the connection. The other PCs in ad hoc mode are child stations.

Q. Do you need special hardware to support encryption?
A. The specific hardware model determines the level of encryption for the unit:
The 341 and 351 models only support 40−bit encryption.
♦
The 342 and 352 models support both 40− and 128−bit encryption.
♦
All 1100, 1200, and 1300 series models support both 40− and 128−bit encryption.

Q. Is it possible to view all the APs and their associated clients that
belong to that particular network/infrastructure just from a single AP?
belong to that particular network/infrastructure just from a single AP?
A. This is possible from a VxWorks AP. A single VxWorks AP can display all the clients and
their APs in a network. This can be achieved if you click Association > Entire Network >
Apply. In an IOS−based AP, it does not display all the associated clients in that network
without the help of a management device, such as WLSE, with one AP as WDS or a
controller if the image in AP is an LWAPP image.

Q. I use CCKM in my network, but still the entire authentication process
occurs whenever the client device roams. In short, fast secure roaming
does not function as expected. Why?
occurs whenever the client device roams. In short, fast secure roaming
does not function as expected. Why?
A. This is possibly because of the bug CSCsg10128. This bug is fixed in Version 3.1.03.
Q. Do Cisco Access Points support the UniDirectional Link Detection
(UDLD) feature in order to shutdown the Ethernet connection to switches
if there is a Layer 1/Layer 2 cable failure?
(UDLD) feature in order to shutdown the Ethernet connection to switches
if there is a Layer 1/Layer 2 cable failure?
A. No, Cisco Access Points do not support the UDLD feature.
Q. How do you supply power to an Aironet AP?
A. The power options for your AP depend on the AP model that you have. Refer to Cisco
Aironet and WLAN Controller Product Power Options for more information.

Q. I have an AP1010, AP1030, and an AIR−LAP−1232AG. Are they able to
use a WS−PWR−PANEL for Power over Ethernet (PoE)?
use a WS−PWR−PANEL for Power over Ethernet (PoE)?
A. The WS−PWR−PANEL only supports access points with a single radio. Refer to the
compatibility matrix available in the Cisco PoE and Cisco Intelligent Power Management
section of Cisco Aironet Power Over Ethernet Application Note for more information.
